About us
Moonware is revolutionizing airfield operations across the passenger, cargo, defense, and advanced air mobility sectors
Our vision
Moonware’s vision is to create fully connected & intelligent airfields that handle aircraft autonomously from touchdown to takeoff, enabling the next generation of air transportation.
Manifesto
Moonware is building the ecosystem for complete airfield automation—starting with intelligent software that powers every aspect of the operation. Our platform is designed to eventually drive autonomous ground support equipment (GSE) to execute last-mile turnaround tasks such as pushback, baggage & cargo handling, and much more.
The synchronization between software and hardware will ensure that all airfield activities are seamlessly coordinated, offering a centralized system of command and communication.
Our mission
Committed to aviation
At Moonware, our mission is to drive the evolution of ground operations. We are leading the way with automated and sustainable airfields in a landscape where aircraft technology has surged ahead, while airport infrastructure and processes have been left in the past.
Moonware’s mission extends across existing markets like commercial and defense aviation to emerging ones like Advanced Air Mobility (AAM). We are not just eyeing the future; we are actively building the foundations for a new frontier of air transportation.
Our story
Moonware was founded with the belief that multimodal air transportation will become the prime mover of people and goods during the 21st Century. From eVTOLs ferrying passengers between cities and suburban areas, to supersonic aircraft and suborbital flights shaving travel time between continents, we are ushering in a new air and space age that will further globalize humanity.
As builders hailing from top Silicon Valley tech companies and established aviation industry players, we are leveraging years of product development experience in aerospace, automotive, and robotics with the mission to enable this next generation of aerial mobility.
Our roadmap
Where we're headed
At Moonware, we're forging a path into the future of air transportation, where automated and sustainable airfields are the backbone of global connectivity. Our roadmap sets a course through this new era.
Phase 1
Digital foundations
Today, we are actively collaborating with airlines, cargo carriers, ground handlers, and airports to upgrade their existing systems. We have already successfully launched HALO, our Ground Traffic Control™ platform, in airfields all over the world. At its core, HALO leverages real-time data to dynamically orchestrate airside operations, ensuring optimal resource allocation and a new dimension of operational control.
Phase 2
Augmentative autonomy
In this phase, we will leverage the data and experience gained from our initial deployments to explore autonomous ramp services. We will focus on high-demand sectors such as military airfields and Advanced Air Mobility (AAM), tailoring our automated ground service solutions to their unique operational needs.
Phase 3
Autonomous airfields
At this point, we will transition into a fully integrated autonomous ground service provider. We aim to implement autonomous vehicles and systems, powered by our software, to manage all aspects of ground operations. This will include engine-off taxiing, reducing fuel consumption and emissions, thus enhancing the efficiency of aircraft movements on the ground.
Phase 4
Enabling future flight
Finally, we will adapt our technologies and services to support the evolving needs of next-generation aircraft, including autonomous and electric models. Our focus will be on developing sophisticated surface management systems capable of handling diverse operational requirements, ensuring that airfields remain at the cutting edge of aviation technology.
Moonware is committed to advancing the aviation industry through these strategic initiatives, aiming to deliver tangible benefits in efficiency, sustainability, and operational excellence. And perhaps much more… who knows what the future will bring?
